That’s going to hurt… I am quite conflicted about how this all ended on the one hand I felt that it was cop out of sorts, but on the other hand I was on the edge of my seat right up until the initial response to Kanata’s rendition of Amazing Grace. While [...]

As we approach the end of this series, I feel like some major storm is brewing up in the plot.  I was just watching a commercial for the Sora no Woto finale and it looked somewhat epic.  Yes, epic.  That’s more to say than K-ON and STRIKE Witches, which brings me to my next point… [...]

Some Les Yay! Moments going around here including some serious stuff. Two instances… The above when Filicia says this to Aishia… That are some nice breasts you have. Just what I like.

Wait for it Price we only got one shot at that bastard Zakhaev… Rio-hime has gone off to try and bring peace, but it seems that negotiations have been over for some time as it must have taken a while for both Helvetia and Rome to mobilize forces to far flung frontiers. [...]

The last episode of Sora no Woto arguably surprised by waving goodbye to one of its lead characters, and so this eleventh instalment sees the 1121st Platoon shorn of Rio's unique qualities as she goes off to fulfil whatever destiny she might hold.With Rio gone, it soon starts to become clear that the rumours surrounding the current peace talks going badly are more than simply that, with the girls

I am surprised that she reads her father’s letters multiple times before burning them… This week there was much less in the way of comparable experiences I have to give with regards to how they do things aside from how excitable Kureha was when they finally got parts in. With regards to the rest it pretty [...]

It's now six months since Kanata joined 1121st Platoon, and her trumpet skills have certainly improved markedly during that period, enabling her to fulfil her duties along those lines with relative ease.It's probably a good job that Kanata has stepped up to the plate as well, as we find Rio more and more consumed by her own situation and worries, which sees her cooped up in her room with little
